Crusaders of the Lost Mark: the character development of an entire season's subplot, crammed into a single musical episode. Seriously, what happened in this episode, particularly with Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, should've been spread out much further back in other CMC episodes. It would've felt much more natural in the end, made those episodes more interesting, and created a more solid arc to hold the CMC subplot together. But as is, CotLM felt very much like the CMC equivalent of Magical

Lunar Apprentice readers, you have been my most reliable readers to turn to for feedback, so I'd like to call your attention to another of my stories, The World-Jumper. It's an HiE fic, with the protagonist (Jack West) intervening through the course of the series, starting with Mysterious Mare-Do-Well. I feel like the story has stagnated; I'm putting a lot of effort and consideration into it, but the last two chapters have earned me next to no favorites, comments or follows. That's why I

World-Jumper readers, Dazzled has so far turned out to be the story's worst overall release in terms of release-day views, and ever since Lord and Master I feel like the story has kind of stagnated. Lord and Master, Twilight of the Gods and Dazzled have received next to no critical response (read as: comments), and haven't garnered near as many favorites or follows as I'd expected. The shame of this is that I feel like all three are pinnacles of my FiMFiction writing career, and I'd at least

I've been spamming "Welcome to the Show by Daniel Ingram" on the Rock Band 4 request page: http://www.harmonixmusic.com/games/rock-band/request/

Welcome to the Show can rock. Regardless, I know it's a long shot, but If you'd like to join me in spamming requests for the Dazzlings (or, if you must, their perfect little good-girl counterparts the Rainbooms), maybe, just maybe we can get some brony music in the game.

Readers of Lunar Apprentice and Night Terrors, I have neglected you, and I am very sorry for it. I want to keep this short: I'm having some lousy writer's block about where to take Night Terrors. I've got my beginning set up, I have a decent idea of where I want to end it, but the middle is giving me trouble. So I'm opening it up for spitballing; literally any ideas about where I should go from here. Anything at all might inspire me. Thank you, wonderful people.

F*** you, hackers, FiMFiction is back!

After this scare, I'm going to back up my best work to Word docs on my computer. I'd encourage you all to do the same.

...the sequel is up for Lunar Apprentice. It's called Night Terrors, and I tried to open it up with a bang.

Oh wait, yes I do.

If you saw tonight's update to The World-Jumper, then found there wasn't actually a new chapter, I'm very sorry about that. Slip of the clicking finger meant I accidentally published the newest chapter before I actually meant to.

EDIT: Now knighty has said he is not going to blanket-delete all RP groups, just clean up problem threads. Crisis averted.

If you're reading this, you've probably seen knighty's blog post banning all RP on the site. No more, and every last bit is going to be deleted by 24 hours from now. How they'll find the groups to delete, I don't know, but it's happening. So yeah...

So, yeah...
